Questions and Answers

Q. I have a favorite orange tree that is quite old. What time of year can I propagate it?

A. Late spring and summer is the best time to root citrus from cuttings.

Q. The leaf tips on my potted Peace Lily keep drying and turning brown. What might be the cause of this?

A. If the plant has not been repotted in a few years, this could be salt damage. Salts from municipal water and fertilizers can accumulate in the soil and brown leaf tips are a result. Try repotting or leaching the plant.
